"Patricia and her team were my photographers for both my outside engagement party and my intimate wedding in NYC. They’re extremely professional and most importantly enjoyable to work with.
Patricia and team care about capturing you and your loved ones at your best and they’re very open and flexible when it comes to making your vision come to life.
We will be staying in touch and ensure we use her and the team for future events!”
"creative and truly caring"
"Patricia delivered such an amazing experience with the photography session I booked with her to do my surprise proposal. As an out of state person I was already having trouble picking the right spot. Patricia helped me as much as she possibly could to find the perfect spot. Once the moment arrived she was in place and guided us around for amazing pictures spots and poses. She blew my fiancé and I away with the edited pictures we got from her a few weeks later. Would definitely recommend!"
"she blew us away with
the pictures!"

"We had a phenomenal time working with Patricia for our engagement shoot. She went above and beyond to get the exact style we were looking for, and had great ideas and directions to help us feel comfortable and at ease since we’d never done a photo shoot before. We are delighted with the result, and can’t wait to work with her during our wedding."
"we had a phenomenal time!"

view my wedding PORTFOLIO »
Vibrant, elevated and full of emotion, my photography tells the story of your day though a mix of candid moments, beautifully composed portraits, and detailed shots that capture the essence of your wedding. My images higlight the joy, raw emotions, and natural beauty of you celebration, reflecting both the grand and intimate moments.
THE TECHNICAL SIDE
I prefer backlighting my subjects with natural or artificial light to create beautiful glowing images. My favorite lens is the 85mm lens, which produces stunning close-up shots while a wide-lens helps me document the environment and action-packed party scenes. I aim to create a layered narrative of your day, showcasing both emotional intimacy and the atmosphere of your celebration.
EDITING APPROACH
My editing ranges from natural to bright and crips, emphasizing
highlights to produce true-to-life colors and vibrancy with touches of drama, whimsy, and joy. Evening photos may have a moody, edgy feel, with a mix of flash on and off-camera. I deliver a majority of candid shots alongside a blend of classically posed and editorial images.
